DescriptionAlibi uses 3D animation techniques to recreate the secretive and private Alibi Club, comprising Washington DC’s most elite and powerful men. The animation depicts the nondescript 19th century building with the properties of fabric, gently blowing in the wind; creating a mediation on secretive power, its constant presence in the urban landscape and its inevitable decline.
